Hi Camille,<div><br><div>I don&#39;t know if you have any protein labs around you but if someone is using rosetta or codon-plus type expression Ecoli strains those cells usually contain a plysS plasmid derivative that is chloramphenicol resistant and carries the gene encoding lysozyme among other things (plus the rare tRNA genes). If they don&#39;t have the plasmid at hand you can still grow the cells and make a miniprep of the plasmid (low copy) to have a lysozyme gene in your hands.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Hope this helps.</div><div>Let me know if you can&#39;t find it.</div><div><br></div><div>-- <br>Pascal F. Egea, PhD<br>Assistant Professor<br>UCLA, David Geffen School of Medicine<br>Department of Biological Chemistry<br>
